Auction!

it is 17.625% for the auctioneer and 17.5% for the thieving *******s called the government... So, it is final bid + 35.125% on top. So, if end bid was £120 total cost is £162.15

Which is still dirt cheap on most things they are selling, arai chaser for that much is a bargain if you can get one for that much considering i bought my chaser from them for £370.
At the time they had plain ones for £270.

IMO its the batches or larger lots where i think you could make some money, whole racks of goodies, some of the things are worth a punt.

Like i said, im watching a lot of things so will see how they develop.

BTW, they are selling the bikes so you would have comeback to them, not like buying a bike off a dodgy bloke in a pub is it, they must be theirs to sell, doesnt seem like the company that wouldnt check first is it.

If I had the cash I'd buy up a couple of the job lots as you probs make 3 times what you buy it for

Notice of this is listed in MCN this week so a fair few will be aware. It looks like you have to collect in person anything you 'win' at auction, with no mention of delivery anywhere. So if you're a distance from Leicestershire the online bidding system's pretty pointless other than for high value items (ie bikes)?

I'd imagine it'll be VAT on the auction fee itself where it says, auction fee (plus VAT) so say the fee was £10 you'd pay £1.75 VAT on top as well.

Anyone seen what the stuff went for in the end?
I took a punt on a scorpian end can, bid at £50, ended up costing £67 with all the charges.

I was watching a 08 DRZsm, it went for about £3400 , bit over priced imo.
6 Givi boxes on a display went for £150 plus charges so that would make somebody some good profit.
A curvy went for £600 plus charges.

Saw the curvy - Someone got a bargin!
